Labor's $18 a week slug to travel to school 4

I have just learned that a family with two children, who formerly travelled to school for free on the bus (fully subsidised by our taxes), now have to pay $18 per week for the same priviledge and we are still subsidising them on top of the new fees.

When the Tasmanian Labor Party school bus fee scheme/scam was introduced less than two years ago it cost these same parents $6 per week.

I understand the Tasmanian Liberals have promised to abolish the bus fees altogether and resume what once was, and should have never been changed in the first place, if they are elected. But when would it happen?
